Why AAIE?
Online & On-demand
Our programs are designed to fit your busy professional life—and you can complete the coursework from just about anywhere in the world.
Self-paced
It takes on average seven weeks to complete one of our courses. If you enroll in our fellowship program, you can expect to complete all seven courses in approximately 1.5 years. Since AAIE Institute courses are self-paced, coursework is completed asynchronously (at your own pace) within 45 calendar days in a 1:1 (one instructor/one participant) environment.
Fully-facilitated
When you take a course through the AAIE Institute, you will have access to your instructor. Assignments are submitted at the end of each module, are scored against a rubric, and are returned to you with customized feedback designed to improve your professional practice. Your instructor is available to you for any questions or concerns throughout your course experience.
Seasoned Instructors
Our instructors bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in international education. All Institute instructors have specialized skill sets and experience in different facets of leadership and education. Many of our instructors are experienced international school leaders who offer real-life strategies and solutions for the unique challenges of international education.
Outstanding Curriculum
Our course content has been updated and aligned with Nine Leadership Challenges themes as defined by AAIE international school leaders.
AAIE Alumni Network
When you take an AAIE Institute course or become an AAIE Fellow, your experience connects you to students, instructors, and mentors from around the world. Many of the students that have completed our courses note that the connections they have made are invaluable.
Cohort-Model Course Format Option
Our cohort-model online courses are seven-weeks long and have a defined start and end date. Move through each course with a small group of current and aspiring school leaders.
